Just to say I haven’t entirely disappeared, but have only had time in the last couple of months to post on Twitter, and that mostly links to other stories. I’ll hopefully find time to work on the content in the not too distant future. In many ways this site wasn’t meant to be an ongoing thing but more a collection of the resources on The Ring Cycle I wanted in one place and it’s mostly achieved that for me. Still a few things I’d like to add though so will be back at it soon!

As a fan of both Wagner and the Marvel Comics Universe, I’m hoping for a nod to the Nibelungen in next year’s Thor 3: Ragnarok which has recently started filming.

There is precedent for this as a 1980 sequence of the Thor comic which saw the Asgardian tackle Alberich and the loss of the Rhine-gold. The writer was Roy Thomas, who went on to create one of The Ring graphic novels.
